Eli Roth, one of the most brutal directors in the horror genre, presents his new project: Thanksgiving, a slasher film that promises to be as brutal as the Hostel films and as wild as The Green Inferno, the remake of Cannibal Holocaust for the bravest. Sony Pictures has released the first trailer for this new work, a feature film adapted from Roth’s acclaimed fake trailer for Grindhouse. The premiere is planned for November.
Without giving away too many details of its story, Thanksgiving seems to have the classic structure of a slasher: a murderer is on the loose and killing everyone he comes across, with the difference being that it’s Eli Roth who is behind the crime hidden in the macabre backdrops that can be seen in the trailer. Of course, the deaths have to be as imaginative as possible, and that means they have to border on the impossible, subjecting the victims to incredible torture. The idea for the feature film came from creating a small (fake) trailer filmed for Quentin Tarantino’s Grindhouse, which was eventually made into a film.
Eli Roth himself became, in his time, the terrible masked man responsible for terrorizing the residents of a town in Massachusetts. This time the cast includes Patrick Dempsey, Milo Manheim, Addison Rae, Nell Verlaque, Jalen Thomas Brooks, Gina Gershon, Rick Hoffman, and Karen Cliche. The premiere is scheduled for November 17th in theaters, and, in principle, it will be Roth’s last film work before hitting commercial theaters with his beloved Borderlands film, which has gone through a sea of changes and problems before reaching a date could get. Begin.
